Trip to Lotus
Small TM tour of the lotus factory last week with DaveW and son, Richard (Easter) and Graham. Ended of the day with the best part in my view, a tour of Classic Lotus and a nice farewell from Clive Chapman at the end.....who seems so very different to his father! Fabulous atmosphere there, Jim Clarks cars etc and still looked after by his original mechanic who was a fascinating chap to chat to. Drawers full of engineering drawings going back to the start of Lotus and they are still used!

FANTASTIC!
Those guys were heroes, sat inside a fuel tank with minimal safety protection if any.
Proper racing cars.

Sounds like a great day out to the home of another great sports car. Super pictures, the B/W theme catching the atmosphere of days gone by. Did they like your Morgans ?
